Latin America Racist Discrimination

"HERNAN COUTURIER, Under-Secretary of Multilateral and Special Affairs, Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Peru: The international struggle against racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance is not new to Latin America. We harbour the hope that the Conference will be an important landmark in international efforts to combat prejudice of all kinds. A large number of Peruvian men and women in our largely multi-ethnic society still face various forms of intolerance. It is important for us to note, however, that discrimination is not always based on race or colour. Indeed, poverty and its attendant stigma and exclusion also result in exacerbating discriminatory and intolerant attitudes.
The outcome of this Conference must contain measures which acknowledge poverty as a cause of racism. We feel that is particularly important because globalization and increased migration are making it more necessary than ever to ensure the protection of all peoples. Economic, social and structural changes within countries are forcing more and more indigenous populations to leave their homes. The Conference must adopt a Programme of Action that strengthens protection for migrants from prejudice and discrimination."

Base on this article even in Latin America racist discrimination goes around in there own contry. Base on this article it said "discrimination is not always based on race or colour. Indeed, poverty and its attendant stigma and exclusion also result in exacerbating discriminatory and intolerant attitudes" this means by the way people act and they might not want migrants to come to there contry and take over there land. Some people think different ways bad and good. Thats where discrimination come from and it comes from HATE. We need to get together and live peacefully. Theres no reason y to discriminate some one just by visiting your country. People are scared of things that happen and they dont want it to happen again. Thats why theres alot of racist discrimination and is horrible.
